This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turkey and the Roads of the East By the exercise of cool judgment and Christian charity the 1eader may say, I can just grasp your a1gu1nent that Germany has, not indeed a 1ight, but a reasonable claim to some sha1e in the work of developing lialf civilised countries. Two years ago the idea of a German T'urkey might not have seemed more monstrous to the world than the idea of a British India, a British Egypt, a French North Africa and indo-china, and a Russian Siberia and Central Asia. But you have forgotten that Mesopotamia touches the Persian Gulf, and that the Bagdad line is the short cut to India. If you allow the Germans to hold that line, what security have you that when they have spent a generation in recuperating from this war and in drilling the Turks, they will not lead a Turco German army to the conquest of India? There can be no absolute security against such a danger. At various periods between the Battle of the Nile and the Battle of Jutland the F1ench, the Russians, and the Germans (or some aggressive elements among each of them) have coveted India \veo have only one security which is nearly absolute, and that is the contentment of the people of India with our rule. If we know how to keep that contentment and to deepen it by the adaptation of our institutions to their pro gress, we have little to fear from any aggressive Empire. There are other guarantees (apart from the moral guarantee that the Ger-mans have suffered lessons in this war which will not be ior gotten for a generation), notably distances, deserts and mountains, and our command of the seas.

Book Synopsis Journeys on the Silk Road Through Ages—Romance, Legend, Reality by : Avijeet Bhattacharya
Download or read book Journeys on the Silk Road Through Ages—Romance, Legend, Reality written by Avijeet Bhattacharya and published by Zorba Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journeys on the Silk Road Through Ages—Romance, Legend, Reality is a compelling narrative about the legendary Silk Road, down the ages. It takes us back to the nearly forgotten times when the dusty, long road was discovered by herders and nomads in search of pastures and oases. It was a long trek into the unknown. This gradually turned into the fabled ‘Silk Road’ spanning from China and across Central Asia, with its numerous trade routes, staging posts, caravanserais on the one hand, and the rugged landscape through steppes, across mountains, deserts and nations on the other. The Silk Road stood out like a great artery, that sustained for centuries. The Road with its routes conveyed not only commerce but also ideas and philosophy of the far-east China to the far-flung Roman Empire in the west, drawing from and contributing to other regions and countries that fell along the way – Turkestan, Afghanistan, India, Persia, Mesopotamia, Palestine, Phoenicia and Anatolia, thus, linking the ancient and the medieval worlds. It was an enterprise of gigantic proportions; the great highway witnessed trade in almost all products, with silk, precious stones, porcelain, metals, and horses as chief commodities. Of these, silk was the foremost merchandise that merchants transported on camel caravans and upon mules from the Land of Serica. Slaves too were traded. Monks and warriors also walked along the trodden path. Merchants exchanged goods which made trade possible bringing in a flow of wealth, while monks and warriors exchanged philosophy, ideas, and statecraft, despite conflicts and wars. The narrative travels back to the times when the road started making history by joining imperial Xi’an with imperial Rome – a distance of more than 8,000kms – during the period of China’s Han Dynasty, sometime around 200 BC. This strangely endured till the present days of Communist China and OBOR, deliberating the Chinese Puzzle. The book is an adventurous amalgamation of history, travel and the unanticipated, and not merely a clichéd travel account. It presents a fascinating story of realms, rulers, travellers and merchants, both ancient and modern, with captivating collection of anecdotes, lores and current realities, from far and wide. Its brilliant web makes the book immensely readable.
